WhatsApp introduces new feature to transfer chat history

Popular messaging app WhatsApp has introduced a new feature that enables subscribers to transfer their chat history across operating systems.

In a tweet, the app owned by Facebook said from Friday, subscribers can move their chat history from iOS to Samsung phones. This means when subscribers change phones, they will not lose the chats, photos and other media they had shared on their old phones.

New phone, same memories.
